James H. Cobb (1953–2014)

Easy read, good pace, but a little too predictable.
Not a book I would want to re-read a second time.

Unfortunately, an excellent end to a great series. James H. Cobb left us in 2014 but he left this splendid finale to his USS Cunningham Series. Blessings on whoever resurrected it and had it published currently. Both battle scenes are military works of art carefully crafted asymmetrically and aptly suited to the Savannah. The talent is gone but perhaps the series might find another author to carry on.

I never this was the third book in the series. I put Garrett above Gordon Kent's Alan Craik and Poyer's Dan Lenson. She is prepared to rewrite the rules to suit the situation. I see her getting on with Alex Hopper (see the movie 'Battleship'). I must track this series down.

Book #6 or 7 of Covert One series, starring Jon Smith. Cobb is a good action writer. Plot revolves around Russians trying to hide plans to bomb US with anthrax as last ditch effort by Stalin for Russian supremacy, with competition from ruthless arms dealer.
